RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS AND PLEURAL CONDITION ABU-IRTAIMEH & JAWARNEH 0 COPD Bronchiectasis and Asthma
RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS AND PLEURAL CONDITION ABU-IRTAIMEH & JAWARNEH 1 Respiratory Infections Acute Tracheabronchitis - Acute inflammation of the mucous membrane of the trachea and bronchial tree. - Causes: Infection (URTI), inhalation of physical and chemical irritant, gases. - Pathophysiology: inflamed mucosa from (SP (streptococccus pneumonia), HI, MP (mycoplasma pnem)) or fungal agent produce mucopurelant sputum - C\M initially the pt c\o: dry irritating cough scanty amount of mucoid sputum retrosternal soreness may occur fever and chills, headache, general malaise - C\M: as infection progress: S.O.B, noisy inspiration and expiration, purulent (puss filled) sputum occur. - Dx evaluation: sputum culture and sensitivity C&S - Medical Management: AB (antibiotics) expectorant increase fluid intake steam inhalation moist heat to the chest analgesic & antipyretic - Nursing Management: Increase fluid intake coughing exercise
RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS AND PLEURAL CONDITION ABU-IRTAIMEH & JAWARNEH 2 place pt in setting position instruct pt to complete the course of AB treatment avoid overexertion & instruct pt to rest Pneumonia (Chest Infection): - Is an inflammation of the lung parenchyma, caused by various microorganisms - Classification (common classifications): Community Acquired Pneumonia (CAP), Hospital Acquired Pneumonia (HAP), pneumonia in immunocompromised host, Aspiration Pneumonia. Others: Bacterial or typical, atypical, anaerobic, opportunistic, CAP: Occurs in the community setting or within the first 48hr’s after hospitalization The causative agents: S.pneumoniae, H.influanzae, legionella, pseudomonas areuginosa The most common CAP the S.pneumoniae (pnemococcus), occur in people younger than 60y without comorbidity and ≥ 60y with comorbidity - Mycoplasma pneumonia another type of CAP, caused by Mycoplasma pneumonia, occur in olds, children, and young adults - H. influanzae another cause of CAP, affects elderly with comorbid illness (DM) HAP: Known as nosocomial pneumonia Onset of pneumonia symptoms >48hr’s after admission in pt with no evidence of infection at the time of admission Organism responsible as: Enterobacter species (EC), Klebseilla species, Staphylococcus. Aureus, S. pneumonia. Pneumonia in the immunocompromised host: Include Pneumocystis Carinii Pneumonia (PCP), fungal pneumonia, mycobacterium tuberculosis. The organism that causes CPC now known as Pneumocystis jiroveci Pneumonia Occur with use of corticosteroid, chemotherapy, AIDs, and other factor that cause CAP and HAP
RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS AND PLEURAL CONDITION ABU-IRTAIMEH & JAWARNEH 3 Aspiration Pneumonia: Refer to the pulmonary consequences resulting from entry of endogenous or exogenous (Triggers inflammatory changes and inactivate surfactants leads to alveolar collapse) substances into the lower airway.... (most commonly: bacteria reside normally in URT) Common pathogens: S. pneumonia, H. influenza, S. aureus Other causes aspiration of gastric content, irritating gases. Pathophysiology Affect both ventilation and diffusion Inflammatory reaction occurs in the alveoli produce exudates which interfere with diffusion of O2 and CO2 Area of lungs not adequately ventilated If one or more lobes is involved this called “lobar pneumonia”, the entire lobe of lung consolidated. If one or more localized area within the bronchi and extending to the surrounding parenchyma this called “bronchopneumonia”, patchy area of consolidation occurs Bronchopneumonia more common than lobar pneumonia lobar pneumonia bronchopneumonia Risk Factors Cancer, smoking, COPD (produce mucus, or obstruct bronchus Immunocompromised pt Prolonged immobility and shallow breathing Depressed cough reflex, aspiration of foreign material Alcoholism General Anastasia, sedative Advance age Respiratory therapy with improperly cleaned equipment Transmission of organisms from staff of health care. Clinical Manifestation Sudden onset of chills, rapid raising fever (38.5o – 40.5o )
